Misfiring after 475 miles

[HTX]

Just general FYI for those that might care. I’ve had the RHO for a few weeks. Took the vehicle to dealer today as check engine came on this morning. Code came up as catalyst system low efficiency and multiple love voltage / battery shorts. They were able to clear the codes and took it for a drive during which they had multiple misfires. Vehicle has 472 miles. More to come

This must be frustrating, and to be honest it should never happened. I guess it's the same issues as the 1500. Hopefully you get sorted and no issues.

No está bueno...

Bad news. Sorry you are going through this.

I am throwing a low voltage code as well. Can you tell me what codes your truck is throwing? My truck goes in Monday. Started throwing code at 172 miles.

I hope we are not getting lemons. I don't like lemonade.

Had RHO for a few weeks? How? Define a few weeks.

I’m hoping they can fix yours with new batteries.

If you get new batteries & that solves the codes, make sure to bring the truck home and hook up your charger. Took a full 48 hours for my new batteries to fully condition & reach peak voltage.

Fingers crossed for you!

This was a similar occurrence with the TRX when it was first released. I am sure there will be several firmware updates to fix small things that are triggering. The standard output hurricane had several updates issued to fix the so-called misfire issue. I am expecting some level of being a "guinea pig" with this new release truck/engine combination. I just hope the issue doesn't end up leaving me stranded somewhere. If the code is bogus and ends up being nothing, then so be it. I will work thru it with the dealership to get the issue resolved. That being said, a weekly occurrence would not be pleasant .

Wonder if this issue is connected with the huge delay in building and/or releasing them to dealer.

Agreed, I view it somewhat as the risk I assumed when buying. I had an order placed that has been sitting in D1 and this vehicle came in that was identical so I picked it up knowing it was one of the first off the assembly line. Have never owned this brand, let alone a truck, but dealer seems to be taking care of it as well as picking up the tab on a rental. Just wanted to provide transparency to folks, if helpful, as the “guinea pig”. I’m sure they will get it sorted as this seams to be an important launch for them and they are just working out the gremlins.

I'm sorry but I could not disagree with this "assumed risk" line of thinking more strongly. These are nearly $90,000 vehicles. The internal combustion engine is not a new thing. RAM is not a startup.

Do things go wrong? Yes, of course. But to say it's ok or you should expect it as an early order is absurd to me. If that's the case, they should offer an early order discount for doing their testing for them.

Just my opinion, others are welcome to their own.

I have been with RAM for over 20 years now and owned many of their trucks. Mainly due to the fact that I get tired of vehicles way too fast lol. I went thru similar patterns with the HEMI line up in the beginning and that went on to be a leading engine/powertrain for a long time. Not saying it is a perfect way of thinking to expect failures, but with these vehicles having so much tech it is bound to happen. RAM has always stood by their products, at least for me they have. That is the one thing that makes investing in this expensive truck easier to bare. Everyone has had their horror experiences with brands along the way. One thing that sets them apart is being there to solve a problem and not just ignoring you/pushing you away. I can almost guarantee they had parts/components that had issues and delayed this launch.

 

[HTX]

All brands, mature ones and start-ups, have issues in many forms with new vehicles. I’ve owned new performance vehicles from BMW, Audi and Mercedes. Take a look at the issues with the new XM, which is far more expensive than the RHO. No one is saying “it’s ok”, I’m saying that I understand what’s happening as more of normal course than people want to believe. If you feel different, cool. Don’t care - it’s not your truck. Deal with it the way you’d like when you get yours. To be clear, I just settled a lawsuit with BMW NA on an actual lemon so I, more than most, understand what that looks like. The point is. This is not that. So far.

To turn this thread, which is meant to be insightful for one’s that find it helpful, into a thread of “opinion” is a useless contribution..
